It’s 65°, cloudy, humid with a light breeze. The grass is getting taller by the day, all of the trees are budding out, even the Ash trees and the pollen is everywhere. We are both battling sinus/allergy crud. I just made a trip to the pharmacy to pick up something for Brad so he doesn’tContinue reading “It’s Spring In Texas”

Productive Day
I started the next colorway on the cowl and our electricians came out today and located the problem with the breaker box in the garage. It’s nothing that can’t be fixed fairly easily, basically connecting it to the main breaker box on the side of the house the way it should have been done whenContinue reading “Productive Day”
UFO’s vs. WIP’s
These are UFO’s aka UnFinished Objects/Projects. I haven’t worked on these on a regular basis in a year or longer. I have a summer throw blanket for the youngest grandson…who is now two years old and probably won’t need it now; a ten stitch blanket in DK weight yarn; a ten stitch blanket in purpleContinue reading “UFO’s vs. WIP’s”
A Day Of Rest
The weekend is rapidly coming to a close and I’ve enjoyed the rest and relaxation. I didn’t even do any knitting today after finishing the Hitchhiker Shawl yesterday. I don’t usually do selfies…but I wanted a photo of the shawl so… I used my cell phone and the auto click button that came with theContinue reading “A Day Of Rest”
A Quiet Monday
We had nowhere to be and stayed at home today. We were able to enjoy having the front door open again. Plenty of fresh air, but not much sunshine. We have a chance of rain, 95% around 2 am and some wind later tonight and again in the afternoon tomorrow. Tuesday is chiropractor day andContinue reading “A Quiet Monday”
Recalculating…
I had thought to be finished with this plying project by now but it seems I’ve been overdoing the spinning thing lately, requiring a second visit to the chiropractor this week due to muscle spasms in my upper back. So today will be a ‘rest in the recliner and knit’ day instead of sitting atContinue reading “Recalculating…”
Good Day To Spin
I’ve been spinning on and off this afternoon and went from 2.5 ounces to 3.0 ounces before taking a break… …and stopped at 5 pm with 3.5 ounces on the bobbin. This leaves me with half an ounce to finish this bobbin, put it beside the first bobbin on my lazy kate and start plyingContinue reading “Good Day To Spin”
Back In Gear
It’s mostly cloudy and windy today but the sun manages to peek out on occasion. I’m back in the studio getting a little spinning done and getting ready to begin photographing and inventory of my hand-spun yarns. I’m starting with the best stuff and will move onto the rest later. The empty space on theContinue reading “Back In Gear”
Cold And Foggy
I woke up before 8 am, rested from a good night’s sleep and a day of doing pretty much nothing yesterday. It’s 28° outside and foggy. It’s also our youngest grandson’s birthday. He is two years old today. We need to pick up a load of cattle feed to take to the farm later thisContinue reading “Cold And Foggy”
Overcoming A Case Of The Blahs
The weather is remaining warm and damp and has triggered a case of the blahs. It’s one of those times I wish Texas would pick a season and stick with it but that ain’t gonna happen so I might as well make the best of it of puttering around in my studio/workroom. I’m thinking aheadContinue reading “Overcoming A Case Of The Blahs”
